Zenpo Page Templates
Zenpo Page Templates installs reusable page layouts into the site's own native Site Pages template system. Each layout becomes a native page template under New page → from template. The product is layout standards, not demo sites. The wizard installs geometry and composition only. It does not create sample content.
The run is one-time, author-initiated, and fully previewed. It runs under the author's own permissions. Everything created is ordinary SharePoint content that survives uninstall.
What it does
You run a three-step setup wizard on the site that needs the layouts. The wizard can also create one Home page from a layout you choose. Nothing unselected is ever created. The preview plan list is the consent surface.
The three layouts
| Picker name | Composition |
|---|---|
| Zenpo Constrained + Right Rail | Constrained main area plus right rail (yours for actions, related links, metadata, or secondary content). Places a Zenpo Page Heading with an empty standfirst. |
| Zenpo Constrained + Left Rail | Constrained main area plus left rail (yours for navigation, references, or resources). Native parts only. |
| Zenpo 3-Column Intranet | Left rail plus fluid primary content plus right rail: the landing-page pattern for portals and section homes. Native parts only. |
Safety guarantees
- A Zenpo product never overwrites an existing customer page. Adding pages and switching the site home (the old home page is kept) are allowed. Conflicting names are handled safely. Existing pages are always retained. Nothing is ever permanently deleted.
- Nothing unselected is ever created.
- No business lists are created. Navigation is never touched. No paid Zenpo component is placed by any blueprint.
- Zenpo keeps a small setup record in Site Assets to track installed layouts. Deleting it is harmless. The dashboard falls back to detecting layouts by name and offers to run setup again.
- Reading order equals visual order on every layout.
Limits
- Page chrome outside the canvas is untouchable: the Microsoft 365 app bar, social bar, suite header, and team-site left nav remain. The app bar cannot be hidden. Communication sites are recommended.
- Re-running never replaces an existing template. There are no template upgrades yet.
- No shipped layout can carry a full-width hero or footer. Every rail is a SharePoint vertical section, and SharePoint disallows full-width sections on pages with vertical sections.
- Pages created from the Constrained-family templates include SharePoint's native title region. Set a banner image or hide the byline via Page details.
- On sites with more than 500 existing pages, collision detection uses the first 500.
The layouts install and work on a team site. They are designed around communication sites, which offer full-width sections and pages without a left navigation rail.
Licensing
Zenpo Page Templates is Free Forever. Your organization accepts the Intranet Suite terms once. The setup wizard is the terms-acceptance surface for this pack. Seat limits, trial expiry, the grace period, and the Pilot Plan do not apply. There are no license banners on this canvas.
The part is blocked only when the organization has never registered, or when the license API is unreachable with nothing cached. See Free Forever Products.
The overlay footnote is: "Everything this wizard creates is ordinary SharePoint content on your own site — nothing is copied out and nothing is charged."
